While waiting for train a fried,
accompanied by a strange gente-
man, approached. The friend n-
troduced his companion, adding
soto voice. "Mr. Waters is as dad
as an adder" Mr.. Waters smiIsd
mechanically and was making a
search through his pockets with Dds
hands. "He's looking for his te h.
phone" explained the soto void
Mr.. Waters finally drew forth a Ill
of wood as big as histwo fingers and
offered it to the reporter. The 4 }
porter took it, and his friend sail
"Mr. Waters have the other end ID

This was done, and it was found
to form a perfect telephone. A loril
interesting conversation about Nj !
Waters aflliction ensued, in whidt
he stated that he had suffered viii
cerebo-spinal meningitis for severl
weeks, lying at the point of dealt
for many days. He ultimately al
founded all the doctors by falsifyirt
their predictions and getting wei,
But he had been perfectly deaf evd
since. BY accident he discovereI
that by pressing the fingers an

followed by experiments, and tn
discovery of the device of holding

lowed. Mr., Waters performs tn
duties of cashier in a bank in an in
land city, but desires not to have tn
notoriety which the publication o
his right name and address woul

"Are you getting ready for that ex1 !
cursion of Eastern capitalists which
is coming here when the railroad is
completed ?" asked a prominet citi-
zen of a new Kansas town of the
Mayor.

ments with Metropolis City to Dor
row its county seat for the day, and
will move it down"
That's good. Anything else2"
eyes each merchant is going to
put up fifty packages which will
look as if they contained sugar, and
the farmers will be going out of the
stores with them all day"
FIFTY packages won't last"
But they'll keep sneaking them
around in the back door again when
the capitalists aren't looking. We
propose to sell each bundle twenty
times. Then we're going to have
two brass bands, and the rail
road company will side-track a
couple of freight trains here all day,
and I'm having the creek damned
up two miles above here, and Just

and let her howl all day and call her
a river and Pm going to salt the
town well with barrel of kerosene
and have an expert smelling of il
and talking loud about natural gas
and then there'll be two or three
men run over with teams, and lot
more will be going around and look
ing awful deep and sticking stakes
around for new buildings, and every
thing will boom proportionately al
day. Oh, you just let me alone t.
